I am a lazy person and after becoming mother laziness has increased only. So I always resort to shaving or epilation when it comes to hair removal and have been using epilators for over 2 years now for my arms & legs. Today I am going to share my experience with the latest launch of Philips – Philips Satinelle Essential Epilator.

What are Epilators?

Epilators are a latest development that hair removal technology has to offer. The procedure involves an electric device removing entire hair shaft at the root. The epilator has a tweezer like head that removes hair by the method of tweezing.

Which is a better method of hair removal – waxing or epilators?

While it depends upon individual choice, preference, life style and skin type to choose the hair removal method, each hair removal procedure has its own advantage and disadvantage.

Waxing is usually disliked since it gets messy and sticky with wax involved in the method. Since minor bruises and bumps are visible on the skin after waxing, it has always triggered the debate if epilating is better than waxing.

Epilators on the other hand are considered ideal by beauty experts. There are a lot of amazing skin friendly features in a good branded modern epilators. Using an epilator is easy and helpful for sensitive skin too. They are faster, easy to use, and mess free when compared to waxing. Epilators guarantee a silky smooth skin for at least 4 weeks.

Practically, epilating is a better method of hair removal.

Reasons why you should epilate

  • Epilators make skin soft and smooth giving long lasting results.
  • Epilators with different attachments can be used for hair removal at different body parts.
  • Epilators are definitely better than waxing for sensitive skin.
  • Epilators lifts, loosens and removes the hair gently. Wheres waxing can stick hair flat against skin.
  • These devices save a lot of time and are highly preferable in a busy woman’s life schedule.

Though the method of waxing is accepted due to its proven results, epilators are gaining popularity. Depending on the hair type and personal experience, the best hair removal method varies from person to person. But overall, using an epilator has more benefits.Philips Satinelle Essential Epilator Review Photos Price (4)

My Experience with Philips Satinelle Essential Epilator

First of all this device works like magic ! I have been using epilators for a long time now and have experienced how painful epilation can get. But Philips Satinelle Essential Epilator removes hair like in seconds. You plug in the device, push the purple button up and the epilator starts, run it on your legs or arms against the growth of hair and move quickly. I have seen quickly moving the epilator on the skin removes hair quickly and with less pain.

I have used it on my underarm area as well using the protective cap, but I wouldn’t say I had the best experience with it. It took a long time to clean underarms area.

 

Overall Thoughts 

While we all have our preferences, I always dislike the messy & sticky wax and due to my schedule I hardly go to parlours. Philips Satinelle Essential Epilator works quickly and removes each strand of hair in less time. Also the epilators in this range are priced affordably as compared to other epilators in the market, which is always a huge plus. Only downside is that it isn’t battery operated which means you have to carry plug etc if you are planning to travel with it.
